Framed for murder. Now she's free . . .
A woman attends a funeral, standing in the shadows and watching in agony as her sons grieve. But she is unable to comfort them - or reveal her secret.
A decade earlier, Heather gets her children ready for bed and awaits the return of her husband Liam, little realising that this is the last night they will spend together as a family. Because tomorrow she will be accused of Liam's murder.
Ten years ago Heather lost everything. Now she will stop at nothing to clear her name - and to get her children back . . .
What did I think?
You're always guaranteed a good read with a T.M. Logan book and The Mother is no exception - I simply couldn't put it down! Clear your diary for a few hours when you pick this one up as it will be stuck to your hands until you've devoured every single word.
Talk about hooked from the start: reading about Heather attending her own funeral ensured that I put on my virtual running shoes and raced through this book. In a double whammy of mystery and intrigue, I just had to know why and how Heather faked her own death and whether or not she had murdered her husband.
I really liked Heather, even though I wasn't sure whether or not she was a murderer. Although I don't have children, I felt her pain at being separated from her two boys. Even when she was released on licence she was prevented from being in contact with them and I could have cried for her. It gives her motivation to fight for her freedom though and she claims she didn't kill her husband so she needs to find out who did in order to clear her name.
With plenty of shocks and surprises in store for the reader, The Mother is fast-paced, gripping and very addictive. T.M. Logan isn't referred to as the master of the up-all-night thriller for no reason - once you pick this book up, you won't be able to put it down. If The Mother isn't picked up for TV, I will eat my hat. Very highly recommended.
I received an ARC to read and review for the blog tour and this is my honest and unbiased opinion.
